Daily Bread - August 7, 2004

But Jesus said unto her, Let the children first be filled: for it is not meet to take the children's bread, and to cast it unto the dogs. And she answered and said unto him, Yes, Lord: yet the dogs under the table eat of the children's crumbs.

I am the true God, the Living God, and an everlasting King. At my wrath, the whole earth shall tremble. I made the earth by my power and established the world by my wisdom. I stretched out the heaven by my discretion. Men who ruled earthly kingdoms shall know the Most High rules in the kingdom of men and that I give these kingdoms to whosoever I will. I shall bring men low to show them that I rule in the kingdoms of men. They shall become as nothing as I show them that I do according to my will in the army of heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth. None can stay my hand or say to me, "What doest thou?"

I will abase those who have walked in pride. They will be humbled before my prophets within whom I have placed an excellent spirit, knowledge, and understanding. I shall exalt my wisdom within my prophets in these last days as they are brought forth to interpret dreams and to give hidden meanings in divers situations. I will do these things in the presence of the proud who have lifted themselves up against the Lord of heaven. I will do these things in the last days that the proud will know that the kingdom of heaven rules in the earth and that I give to rule whosoever I will. Be not tempted by the tempter. Always pray, "Lead us not into temptation, and deliver us from evil and the evil one." The kingdom, the power, and the glory are all mine. I will not give my glory unto another.

Purge yourself of all things that are contrary to sound doctrine according to the glorious gospel of the blessed God. I have committed to your trust this glorious gospel. I placed you into the ministry and enabled you to preach the gospel. You were a wretched sinner, but I gave you mercy and saved you by my grace. I am the King eternal, immortal, invisible, and the only wise God. To me, there should be honor and glory, forever and forever. I have given many prophecies over you. These prophecies went on before you that you might take them, and by them, war a good warfare while you hold faith and a good conscience toward my promises.

I am understanding. By me, kings reign and princes decree justice. I love them that love me, and those that seek me early shall find me. My fruit is better than gold and my revenue than choice silver. I am Christ, the wisdom and the power of God. Believe on me, and your thoughts shall be established. Your words shall proceed out of your mouth, and they will not return to me void. I shall confirm the words that you speak with signs and wonders. You have found life and have obtained favor of me. You are blessed, for you hear me. Now continue to watch daily at my gates. Wait at the posts of my doors. Wait on me, for I will surely strengthen your heart.

Amos 3: 7 - 8

Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. The lion hath roared, who will not fear? The Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?
